Is pure acetic acid dangerous?
It depends on the form of acetic acid, the food additive form or the chemical grade form. The food additive form of acetic acid is vinegar (3-5% solution) and is safe to consume at any time in moderation. The chemical grade form is glacial acetic acid (95% solution) and is not safe to consume at any time - it is a very powerful acid that would cause severe internal chemical burns if you were to drink it.This is general toxicity and safety information, not exclusively (but 'also') valid for pregnants.
